What Members Thought
There were times when I've liked Kull as a character more than Conan. He seems more thoughtful at times, but overall there's no doubt that Conan is a more consistent, and in that sense more believable, character. Still, it's nice to have this collection of all the Kull stories, as well as some fragments and drafts, because it shows us a lot about the development of Howard's characters across his writing life.

The Kull stories are some of my favorite Howard fantasy.
A great set of stories. Early on, Kull was about exploring philosophy in a new context - sword & sorcery (this was basically the origins of the genre), and slowly became adventure stories, culminating in a cross-over event between Kull and Bran Mak Morn.
